Unlocking Opportunities as an Aspiring Arbitrator
In the competitive arbitration landscape, securing the first appointment as an arbitrator is a significant milestone. Insights from experienced arbitrators in our #10QuestionswithMaxwell interview series on how aspiring and young arbitrators can get their first appointment emphasise gaining visibility and exposure through speaking engagements, contributing to publications, accumulating relevant experience, building rapport with arbitral institutions, and joining young practitioner groups. Patience, confidence and a strong personal brand are also highlighted as essential qualities for success.
For our third roundtable session, join the facilitators Hazel Tang and Darius Chan to explore the important factors to consider in attaining the first appointment and more. This session is ideally suited for professionals seeking your first arbitrator appointment.

Six Degrees of Separation - Independence, Impartiality, and Duty of Disclosure
There have been significant cases recently which considered the issues of bias and conflicts of interest in international arbitration. The need to ensure that justice is not only done but is also seen to be done in arbitration to resolve their disputes. What should an arbitrator disclose and what should the arbitrator do if being challenged by one of the parties. Are we being too sensitive or being too practical?
Join our facilitators Jern-Fei Ng KC and Delphine Ho as they explore the various types of conflicts of interest, and instances where a challenge based on conflicts crosses the line and becomes and abusive one.
